So all my minor woes yesterday are nothing compared to what those I love are going through. Makes you stop and think about appreciating what you have.
I don't mean to sound insensitive (though I'm not very good at that), but what is a shooting accident?Quote:

When I heard about the burglary in Killsallaghan I thought that that was the incident in question.
Either way that's a shocking way to go.
The poor creaturs.
The least used toilet in the world!

You'd think that, but it has actually changed. I know plenty folk who would say the same thing too. It's still nice though.Quote:

8PM: Delicious Heineken.
Thursday 1AM: Ah, the bar is closed. Oh, thank you Bar manager guy for my free birthday pint. :)
2AM: (scene missing)
4AM: I should probably leave the bar. I have to be up for work in the morning. I said I would be in early today.
915AM: I won't be in today. Or tomorrow. And please don't look at my pictures or check-ins on Facebook.
4PM: I should get up now.
553PM: I think I'll look at Foot

Blood transfusion booking in for Sunday
What way does the blood donation work in Dublin? When I lived in England I gave blood religiously every 4 months(I think?) because they had a dedicated location open all day so I could go when I could. It's kinda fallen by the wayside since I returned home. You only have 3/4 opportunities a month to donate here, they pop up in random locations that thus far haven't been suitable for me.:mad:
Ready to set traps to blow up the Harps team bus on their way back from Galway tonight.
Let us know if you need a hand, us muckers know a few things. . . .
Felix Healy would be a good place to start.Quote:

My love affair with Magners is no more. Pint bottles/tap is fine, but when it comes from a can I get bad heartburn. Last night was horrible.

Hmmmmmm... apparently Afrikaners are okay.
I tried giving blood here in Canada a few years ago but they wouldn't take it. So far thats no blacks, no Irish.
This side of the pond if you say you've been to Ireland they probably ask if you've been with any Dublin lasses :pQuote:

Weird thing today, walking from a meeting around 4pm, in glorious sunshine, with a client and her mother. We're discussing fashion and this young lassy (no more than 14) strolls by with her mother (I think) wearing a t-shirt saying - I "heart" s1uts. I wanted to go and point out to her what it meant, I mean, she might not even know english. But christ.
I know. I never get offended on behalf of others. I was being glib. :-)Quote:

It's funny, your response is almost verbatim to a response I gave to a friend when he complained of IBTS not taking blood from gay men.Quote:

In other news, why the fook can women not understand air conditioning thermostates? To get the room to an acceptable temp you set it to that temp and leave it, you don't have to ramp it up to 24 degrees. And no, it won't "get warmer quicker".
They know that the engineers who designed it were men, so they assume they know better. It being ridiculous is insufficient counterargument. I just disable the outer dial. As long as they've something to adjust, they're happy, even if it has no effect.Quote:

Girls are smelly, ones who play sports that is. Either sweet smelly with too much perfume and deodorant, or smelly smelly with bo and sweat. And some are very hairy.
